Nothing says Boozeday Tuesday like 1 liter of gin! This is made in a wood-fired copper still, using grape spirit instead of neutral grain. Apparently, the Island of Minorca was a port of call for British soldiers, who got the locals to start making gin so the Brits didn’t have to import it in and it became a thing! Oily juniper notes on the nose with other notes of pine, spruce, and lemon zest. Definitely viscous on the palate with a lot of juniper oils, pine, and herbal notes. Best enjoyed in a Pomada - the local drink that’s mixed with a 2:1 ratio with lemonade.
Hey bartender - can I get a Tanqueray Sapphire and Tonic with Cyclone please? Thank you so much!
You're in the right place now! However, I must admit, this bar doesn't stock exactly what you asked for (aka, i couldn't not find it via extensive web search), so I poured Bombay Sapphire for this gin and tonic! This is his go-to drink at galas and black-tie events. Also, I think blue is definitely Cyclone's color 👀
message me if you wanna order something else!

Well, I have to believe that the British know how to make a good martini right? Although I hear that Mr. Bond had been getting it wrong for many years (stirred is better than shaken, apparently).
The gin and tonic has saved more Englishmen's lives, and minds, than all the doctors in the Empire.

British empire builders took quinine to protect themselves against malaria, but it tasted too bitter. The British Army officers in India mixed quinine with sugar and sparkling water (& gin) to make it more palatable – the iconic Gin & Tonic was born.
Hi everyone, I’m Gina but Gi, Gigi, Gin (and tonic) works fine as well. I’m Australian (go aussies), go by she/her pronouns and am pansexual.
I draw stuff, mostly fan art but occasionally I will draw an oc. I love books and reading so it’ll probably be book characters.
Requests are open!!
I’ll draw anything apart from:
Any NSFW content
Ships that have incest cos that’s gross
Ships/characters I don’t like (ie Umbridge although I doubt anyone would like her drawn)
I will draw other people’s ocs but I need a TON of info first.
